The current ATX IMO is much better. You can easily control the air flow on a good case and supply fresh cool air to both the CPU and the GPU at the same time. BTX is also one crowded whore with little room to mod. Stricky OEM/marketing hype IMO. But we will see.
i agree, i think btx is a bad idea. i think it's all just driven by money. this way everyone has to upgrade their cases and PSUs at the same time.
